“….. The kind of detail you are seeking is unlikely to be in any of the books already listed. ….”

A bit curious, but is this comment based on what AndyY has written in his opening post, or is it based on off-forum discussions that those of us here aren’t privvy to?

If based on the opening thread-post, then the Stewart Wilson book-azine contains:
– discussion on the plans to start production in Australia;
– details on the technical development to modify the standard Lincoln Mk2 bomber into the Mk31 MR patrol aircraft;
– GA drawing of crew positions in an exploded cut-a-way format;
– GA drawing of access hatches & inspection panels;
– Chapters on operational history;
– in usual Stewart Wilson manner – a great deal of use has been made of NAA archive material to discuss production set-up costs, etc.

Based on the opening thread-post, I would have said that a combination of the Stewart Wilson book-azine and the SAM publications book on the “Manchester, Lancaster & Lincoln” would have provided a great deal of information on the Lincoln’s technical history, layout and development.

As for “systems” discussion, the Stewart Wilson book-azine does discuss the H2S radar in the RAAF MR version being able to “pick-up the return from a snorkel” but there is not a huge amount of other “systems” coverage.

But again, it depends on what you’re really looking for in terms of Lincoln technical information.

Good luck in your search,
